Why don't we keep the French city with the accent, thus using it as a disambiguation tool? - User:Olivier
translated text
Much of the text in this article appears to have been translated by a non-native English speaker: the sentence construction is unusual (e.g. 'The schools of Orléans early acquired great prestige' and 'Among those who studied or lectured there are quoted' are two glaring examples). Perhaps there is a French scholar who would be willing to improve this?
This article uses the word "city" to describe Orléans, whereas the French article uses the word "commune". While a commune is roughly equivalent to a city for us English speakers, there is an article called Communes of France that we could pair with the word commune as a link. Assuming the French article is correct and I'm making the right conclusion, we should refer to the settlement type by its French terminology in an effort to educate English speaking Wikipedians as to the nature of French administrative divisions. Any objections? Suggestions? Thoughts? --JBC3 (talk) 04:51, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
A couple of days with no response, I'm going to make the change. If it turns out there is discussion about it later it can always be undone. --JBC3 (talk) 04:07, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Well it seems a little odd. Commune is not equivalent to city, it can for example have a few hundred inhabitants. I think it's like saying "Peterborough is a unitary authority in Cambridgeshire. " RichFarmbrough, 14:02, 27 July 2009 (UTC).[reply]
I have just added archive links to one external link on Orléans. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
